Abstract
Grassland ecosystems cover around 40% of the Earth's landmass, supporting diverse plant and animal populations. In this video, we team up with grassland experts Dr Jens-Arne Subke and Dr Tom Smith, to explore the different types of grassland (temperate and tropical), their climate, and the important role of wildfires in maintaining grassland ecosystems while contributing to the carbon cycle.
